Abstract:
The postcard features Royal Nepalese temple balls, which are made from the resin rubbed off of live plants. The resin is rolled into tight balls and are very high in THC. There are two large squares on the right side of the card and five smaller ones along the left side. The images show hands with the resin, people rolling the resin into balls, the shaping of the ball and the finished balls. One box contains the flag of Nepal. Another contains a religious statue along with several balls.
